Hannah & John Engagement Shoot in Sutton Park

I’ve had to wait a while to blog Hannah & John’s Engagement shoot. My website was hacked a few days after their shoot and it’s been hard work to get things rebuilt and back online. I’m delighted things are back to normal and even happier to kick start my Engagement shoots this year with Hannah & John’s.

We wandered around Sutton Park in the sunshine (don’t be fooled, it was freezing!) and hopefully I showed them that an Engagement shoot is a great way to get rid of any nerves they had about being in front of the camera. My photography is all about letting you be yourself and having some fun. I can’t wait for the wedding next month. Here are some of my favourites.

Kylie & Wade – Engagement Shoot

Kylie and Wade get married next week at Moxhull Hall. We were going to have their Engagement Shoot a while back but ended up leaving it as late as possible, as Wade broke his foot…falling off the roof of his van…..I still haven’t found out why he was up there but no doubt it will get a mention at the wedding. Luckily by the time the Engagement shoot came around he was out of his cast and pretty nifty with his crutches. It started raining almost as soon as we met up but after taking shelter and a pot of tea the sunshine came out and we were treated to some beautiful light. I’ve got to say I had ‘outfit envy’ on the shoot, I loved Kylie’s look. I think there’s going to be some serious style going on next week.

Sophia & Michael – Wedding at East Lodge Derbyshire

Sophia & Michael were one of the first couples to book me at the National Wedding Show last year. They’re so easy to get on with and clearly head over heels in love – my type of clients. I liked them instantly. At their Engagement shoot I realised what great chemistry they have together and loved photographing them. Their wedding didn’t disappoint, it was fun, emotional and an absolute privaledge to photograph. Here are my favourites from the day.

Laura & Mike Engagement Shoot

Laura & Mike get married next week. I’m really looking forward to their outdoor wedding for so many reasons; it’s at one of my favourite venues, Moxhull Hall, Mike is one of the most chilled Groom’s I’ve ever met- maybe it’s something to do with the fact that he’s an Aussie, Laura is beautiful (inside and out) and is going to be wearing a dress by one of my favourite bridal designers, they are clearly nuts about each other and great fun to be around. What more could you ask for.

Sophia & Michael – Nottingham Engagement Shoot

Sophia & Michael have something a little bit special, they have great chemistry together, a great sense of humour and the ability to not take themselves too seriously. We recently got to hang out at Wollaton Park in Nottingham for thier Engagement Shoot and had great fun taking some pictures along the way.

Jamie & Jo – Engagment Shoot Birmingham

Jamie & Jo get married on Saturday. They wanted their engagment shoot to have a bit of an urban feel to it, so we met in Birmingham and wandered around the backstreets and had a great laugh in the process. See you on Saturday guys.

Family portrait photography in Sutton Coldfield

I loved this shoot and I love it when clients choose to have their photoshoot outdoors in a natural environment. The children get to run around and be themselves and have so much more fun, resulting in beautiful natural portraits.

We changed our location for the shoot at the very last minute for somewhere closer to home in Sutton Coldfield, as Dad hadn’t been feeling very well, and I’m so glad we did as it turned out perfectly. A huge thank you to Bobbie at Moxhull Hall for letting us shoot in the grounds. The gardens at Moxhull Hall are gorgeous right now and the children had great fun exploring. I’m spoilt for choice on this shoot for favourites and Mum and Dad have ordered some fabulous wall art that I can’t wait to deliver.

Lucinda & James – Newhall Wedding Photographer

I’m guilty of falling behind with my blogging just lately. With wedding season in full swing I’ve been incredibly busy shooting weddings, engagement shoots and with the weather being kinder (well sort of), I’ve had some fabulous portrait shoots too. As a result my blog posts are a little slower than usual.

This is a wedding I shot a couple of months ago at Newhall, Sutton Coldfield. It was the first time I’ve covered a wedding where there were only 25 guests and also the first time I’d never met the Bride and Groom before the big day. Lucinda and James live in Berkshire and were incredibly busy with their jobs so we never managed to get together beforehand, we spoke lots on the phone though and it was great to finally meet them. I love the intimacy that a smaller wedding has. Here are some of my favourite shots from the day.

Karine & Ross Engagement Shoot

I recently spent some time with Karine & Ross and their gorgeous little dog Pisa for their Engagement Shoot. They have lots of lovely countryside really close to where they live in Rugby so we chose to shoot literally on their doorstep and used one of their favourite walks. I’m not sure on the shoot who was more self concious, Karine being photographed or me due to the fact that I had really bad hayfever and had big frog eyes and no tissues.

They get married in three weeks at a church in Rugby and then onto Brownsover Hall for the reception. Karine looks stunning and and I can’t wait to photograph her in her wedding dress she’s going to make a beautiful bride. It goes without saying that Ross won’t look too shabby either. I just love this first shot.
